Meritage

It's hard to imagine a time when the bar side of Meritage wasn't there, the addition fits so seamlessly with the easy elegance of this French restaurant. One major difference is perception. It was hard to believe before that incredible cocktails could come out of that tiny bar, which closely resembled a modest shelf in the back of the room. That will never happen again. The new bar is a shimmering corner jewel, with stacks of wine bottles, rows of top-shelf liquor, and beautiful absinthe container proudly proclaiming that this is a great spot for drinks. The talent of those mixing the drinks does not disappoint. The entire list of champagne cocktails is refined, with just a bit of a naughty edge, that we expect from our French friends. Try the Singing Violet, sparkling wine mixed with a bit of Farigoule, a slightly sweet thyme liqueur, and a bit of herbal creme de violette. It's like sipping a dew-soaked, sun-kissed field of wildflowers.
